Education:
Graduated from Churchill High School, Eugene, OR.
Graduated from University of Oregon, BBA in Finance/Real Estate
Experience:
While a Senior in college (1974), I obtained my real estate license and have worked as a real estate
principal and/or agent ever since. I am also a licensed loan originator.
In the early years, I worked on tax deferred exchanges and investment transactions. A particularly "fun"
transaction was a 5 way exchange... involving several homes and an apartment house. Ah, the good
old days! We may see a lot more of that given the financing squeeze we're going through. Fine by me!
I have always enjoyed the "creative side" of real estate. I've done lease-options; Land Trust deals with
multiple beneficiaries; short sales; REO buy/fix/flips; bought and sold discounted private paper; owned a 3 unit
floating apartment houseboat (that floated down the river... interesting story..); lots of exchanges of
rental properties-with boot involved; lot splits; commercial financing; oh, and I have sold all manner of homes for
a long, long time.. but my story is getting boring..
When I saw Connect Realty for the first time.. I thought "This is a terrific platform for building a
business". The plan provides top commission splits; free software tools that are "killer"; creative and
honest people to work with; and a tremendous oppportunity to create residual income. In my mind, it's the
perfect blend of low overhead, high tech, minimal "corporate" interference and exceptional growth potential
with no state boundaries.
I pursued the company and now I'm excited to let fellow brokers know about this terrific alternative to
yesteryear's bricks/mortar model. As the State of Oregon Broker for Connect Realty, I am excited about the
opportunity to help talented Oregon brokers take advantage of this new "virtual" network.
If this sounds like the kind of "business home" you've been looking for, I encourage you to call me today to get
a better feel for who we are, and where we're going!
Thank you!
